The present invention relates to the encoding and decoding. respectively, of serial data, using block codes. Encoding of a serial bit stream of input data in groups of N bits, so-called words (O), to serial output data in groups of 2N bits, so-called code words (KO), is preferably carried out by a logic...http://www.google.com/patents/US6642864?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US6642864 - Method and apparatus for encoding/decoding N-bit data into 2N-bit codewords
